77. So who decides what's inflammatory?
Seriously. If I point out the fact that the Israeli military has targeted civilian before (see HRW, the UN, the Red Cross, et al), and that pattern is repeating in Lebanon, is that "uncivil" or inflammatory?

It would be to some here, yet it remains a fact (that some don't want to face). So where is the line drawn? Can we still point out such facts by doing it in a calm, reasonable manner?
